Vice President Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Small business PDF solutions " January 14, 2026 5.0 We use it to create sales quotes and registration files for all our class bookings. By using pdfs it ensures the document can signed digitally which aids our process. Pros I have used both foxit and adobe and i find that adobe offers eadiet document conversions. It allows for easy pdf creations. Cons Although the coating us more than foxit it brings many more features in the suite package that are usefull. Only con is the cost. Alternatives considered [Foxit PDF Editor](https://www.capterra.com/p/249044/Foxit-PDF-Editor/) Reason for choosing Adobe Acrobat Features offer more options to assist our business. Switched from [Foxit PDF Editor](https://www.capterra.com/p/249044/Foxit-PDF-Editor/) Document conversation is easier on adobe amd allows less efforts. Review Source LH Lyla H.

We can easily create, share and edit documents for our company. I love the ability to sign a document electronically as well. Very user friendly and easy to use! Adobe is my favorite software for creating documents. Pros I love Adobe. I have been using it in business for over 5 years but used it throughout my life. It is much quicker to open and send in an email. Being able to edit it works well when we need to update our logo or make changes to our business paperwork. I use this product every day I am at work. I love that you can make changes but still keep the original document for reference. Pricing is a little high but worth it for as much as I use it. I received a charge for a trial that I had cancelled before the trial date ended but contacted support and they were quick to issue a refund. Cons I wish it was a little cheaper and would like to be able to add users for a smaller amount but you have to either have a business account or pay per user. I have a smaller company so the business account did not make sense financially. Review Source DE Dominica E. Network Administrator Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good product for the price. Easy to convert documents into PDF's." November 20, 2025 3.0 Overall, it is good. We rely heavily on Adobe Acrobat. All our change orders, purchase orders and contracts are all sent out using Adobe Acrobat. Pros The ability to edit files, sign documents and highlight important items on a document. Also, the ability to easily create PDF's from a word or excel document. Cons It sometimes crashes. I get errors that too many people are using it when I am the only one using the software at the time. I am usually able to get back right into the document. I will work with support next time this happens. Probably is an easy fix. It does not stop me from working it's just a little annoying having to reopen a document. Alternatives considered [Foxit PDF Reader](https://www.capterra.com/p/175376/ConnectedPDF/) Reason for choosing Adobe Acrobat The \[sensitive content hidden\] were more familiar with Adobe Acrobat and did not want to change software programs. Plus in our industry Adobe Acrobat is pretty standard. Review Source Erick L. IT Tech II Law Enforcement Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Powerful PDF Tool" December 20, 2025 5.0 Overall, Adobe Acrobat is a powerful and dependable PDF tool that’s great for professional and business use. It’s been a positive experience as it does almost everything you need with PDFs Pros I like how Adobe Acrobat is very reliable and makes it easy to view, edit, combine, and sign PDFs in one place. The interface is professional and works well across desktop and mobile. Cons Only thing is the subscription cost feels high for basic users, and some advanced features are locked behind higher-tier plans. Switched from [Adobe Acrobat Reader](https://www.capterra.com/p/170833/Acrobat-Reader-DC/) I needed more advanced features like editing PDFs, combining files, and creating and signing documents. Acrobat provides an all-in-one solution that goes beyond viewing PDFs and improves productivity. Review Source MC Malissa C. Administrative Coordinator Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Adobe is the best, no contest" March 17, 2026 5.0 I use this product in just about all my work. It is easy to use, it is robust and it does all the things i need it to do. Pros Adobe is the supreme leader in this field for many years. I use this product every day, multiple times a day and i love that it is so easy to use. Cons I really don't have any negative things to say about this product. It is supreme to all others like it by far Review Source AD Anthony D. Estimator Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Useful Tool - -With Some Issues" February 26, 2026 4.0 Adobe Acrobat is a must for us since we work so heavily with pdf plans and specifications. While it's UI is sometimes frustrating, I find it does contain everything I need for my job. I most commonly use its tools to extract pages from pdf's or combine multiple pdf's to make a singular file with multiple pages. Pros The ability to view, separate/extract, and share files is the "must" which makes us loyal users of this product. Cons There are crashing issues with what I suppose are larger files with more pdf layers, pages, etc. A close second would be complicated features which could be simplified and displayed better for ease of use. Review Source Sarena C. Director of CU Experience Banking Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Time-Saving Tool I Can Depend On" September 4, 2025 5.0 My overall experience with Adobe Acrobat has been very positive. It’s reliable and makes working with PDFs so much easier. I use it often for editing, signing, and sharing documents, and I especially love the editable PDF feature, it saves me from having to completely recreate forms or paperwork. While the cost can feel a little high, the convenience and time it saves more than make up for it. Overall, it’s a tool I trust and depend on. Pros What I like most is how easy it makes working with PDFs. I can edit, combine, or sign documents without having to jump between different programs. The tools feel reliable and simple to use, and it really saves me time when I’m trying to get things done quickly. Cons The main downside for me is that it can feel a little pricey compared to other PDF tools. Some of the features also take a bit of time to get used to, especially if you don’t use them every day. Overall, it’s a great program, but I do wish it was a little more budget-friendly and streamlined. Review Source KA Keirsten A. Client Care Coordinator Legal Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Adobe is Awesome!" March 4, 2026 5.0 Overall, I really like using Adobe Acrobat. The price is really reasonable, and I love all of the features it has to offer. It makes my job easier. Pros I like that I am able to do a multitude of things in Adobe Acrobat. Being able to combine files, convert files, and edit PDFs have been essential with my work. The price is well worth it for what I am able to do. It is also super easy to use. Cons The only issue I have with Adobe Acrobat is how buggy it is. It freezes and closes out, or I have to wait until it stops bugging out. Review Source LH LACRETIA H. MANAGER Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Reliable and Professional Document Solution for Business Use" March 22, 2026 5.0 Overall, my experience with Adobe Acrobat has been very positive. It’s a powerful tool that supports my business operations, especially when it comes to contracts, invoices, and document organization. While there are minor performance issues and the cost could be more competitive, the value it provides in efficiency and professionalism makes it worth it. It’s definitely a staple in my business toolkit. Pros What I like most about Adobe Acrobat is its ability to streamline document workflows. Being able to edit PDFs, request signatures, convert files, and manage documents all in one place is a major advantage. The e-signature feature is especially valuable for my business, as it allows me to move deals forward quickly without delays. I also appreciate how professional and polished documents look when sent to clients. I also use it personally on a day to day basis. It also integrates with my phone and I am able to use it and have access to it at my fingertips Cons The biggest downside is the pricing—it can be a bit high, especially when you start adding additional features or users. There are also moments where the system can lag or feel a bit heavy, particularly when working with larger files. Some features are not as intuitive as they could be, which creates a slight learning curve. Review Source HH Hassan H. Call Center Rep Banking Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Document Acrobatics" November 13, 2025 5.0 My overall experience with Adobe Acrobat has been absolutely magnificent. I have always used Adobe Acrobat all my life and have used it during school assignments, and even University. Pros What I like most about Adobe Acrobat is being able to use it for Document Signing and being able to Edit PDFs. Acrobat has also been able help me with my Workflow Management and it being really easy to use. Also the User Interface of the Software itself has been great to work with. I believe that this is something I would spend money on. I believe it is worth it for the price. Cons I have not had any issues with Adobe Acrobat and have never called customer service. Sure maybe once or twice my PDF crashed on me but never enough for me to call customer support. Review Source AS Amber S. Business Administrator Business Supplies and Equipment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Adobe Acrobat Functionality" August 27, 2025 5.0 I use Adobe Acrobat almost everyday within my position on my job. When I have to email forums for users to sign, this is my go to product. I love the collaboration it has with other products too where I can then convert the PDF to an excel file, word document, etc.. Pros Adobe Acrobat is very useful for multiple different purposes. One of the major inclusions on this application I find very convenient is being able to convert documents, as well as sign documents. I have created many fill-in forms on Adobe Acrobat. The tools it offers such as combining files, adding comments, and also being able to protect files if you don’t want anyone to edit but strictly for review purposes, are all very good features that are helpful in managing my day to day work. Cons I do not like how easy it is to click and drag the boxes without realizing it. I have noticed when building forums on the application sometimes if I click too long and move my house it can move everything within the blink of an eye. Granted I know now I have to be careful on how quickly I move my mouse, but I wish it gave a warning that you’re about to change the layout. Review Source Junaid H. CEO Furniture Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Adobe Review" September 2, 2025 5.0 Overall a great software but would be best to use in the paid version, where you can have access to all the edits and markups features available. Pros It allows to access easy to read pdf files seamlessly. Never ran into any issues, works like a charm. You can edit the files but you have to pay for the upgraded version. Cons Its limited in the way you can do besides read files in the free version. Sometimes you want to highlight or edit the file but you cant. Atleast adding comments or notes is allowed in the free version. Review Source JP Jessica P. Team Lead Insurance Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Adobe is great!" June 23, 2025 4.0 I have been using Adobe for years. I've watched it adapt to the on going technology advancements and its created an easy user environment. Pros I think this program is overall, user friendly and the best program for accessing PDF documents. I have grown very familiar with its navigation over the years and its functionality performs in the way that is needed. Cons I least liked that you arent even able to use basic functionality without signing in and youre constantly reminded to with prompts. The prompts are a bit excessive. Review Source Hannah K. Vice President Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Acrobat is the best PDF viewer/editor in the game." January 11, 2026 4.0 Pros It is sometimes essential for viewing large PDF's, or if you need to search text within a PDF. Better than other PDF viewers for a lot of purposes. Cons I dislike the OCR converting functions, but those are very necessary and important to my work at times. Based on when I last used it, and after much experience with Acrobat, I came to the unfortunate conclusion that even AI OCR coverters are better than the Acrobat ones. Switched from [Google Docs](https://www.capterra.com/p/160756/Google-Docs/) Acrobat is better for converting PDF or word documents than Google Docs by a landslide. Review Source AC Andrea C. HR DIRECTOR Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Forms and Files Made Easy! " November 19, 2025 5.0 It has been great, it saves us all a lot of time to be able to use the functionality to seamlessly fill out PDF's and give signatures. Working on different schedules and in different places, this really bridges the gap and lets us all work together to get things signed and submitted. Pros Forms and files made easy! With Adobe Acrobat it is so easy to fill out the many, many forms we have to complete. From Grant applications to government forms having this service brings peace of mind. Cons No issues so far, the functionality has worked great for us across the board in every department of our company. Review Source LP Lynne P. Office Manager Utilities Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Essential for Creativity and Productivity" March 5, 2026 5.0 It's been positive. The professional grade tools and wide range of apps empower me to create, edit and collaborate efficiently, whether I'm working on documents, graphics, or multimedia projects Pros What I like most about Adobe is that it empowers me to create, edit and collaborate professionally and efficiently. Cons I would say the learning curve. It can be challenging at first, but it does encourage learning and developing valuable marketable skills. Review Source CG Corinna G. Office Manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Adobe Acrobat - easy to use and great for remote work" October 22, 2025 4.0 I have been using Adobe Acrobat at different companies for several years. I generally use it to create documents. It has made producing monthly payapps much easier. Adobe Acrobat allows me to work remotely. Pros It's the standard and most accepted form for .pdf's across multiple platforms. Once learned it's easy to navigate and use. Cons Updates. Definitely like the updates the least. The updates generally take some getting used to especially when they change the layout format or move buttons. Review Source David V. Lead Developer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A Solid Tool With Some Compatibility Challenges" January 19, 2026 5.0 Overall - it's been a very positive experience and Acrobat is a part of our regularly used tools to run our operation smoothly. Pros Adobe Acrobat give me and my team the ability to quickly send, receive and authorize documents for finalizing contracts, and also helps us quickly and easily convert documents for use in other softwares like photoshop where we can customize our documents and images even further. Cons Not everyone uses adobe acrobat, so cross-platform compatibility can be an issue sometimes and even though there is a free version of acrobat, we still see some people have issues completing or signing documents. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Development Coordinator Higher Education Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Reliable and consistent" June 16, 2025 5.0 My experience has been wonderful. I am thankful that Acrobat exists, as it allows me to be more efficient at my job. I appreciate the flexibility that the web version allows when I'm away from the office. It has all of the features I could ever need. Pros I absolutely love the features that Adobe Acrobat gives you access to. If you need to edit a PDF, this is the software you need. I am often pulling PDF reports from other software that does not allow for the customization I need. I upload the PDF report into Adobe to reorganize the report, redact data, and remove/edit text as needed. Additionally, I use this software frequently to combine separate PDFs into one and also to split out files from a large PDF. It allows me to be efficient within our department. As an added bonus, I can access the software both on my desktop and on the web! The web access come in handy when I'm away from my desktop but still need to use the software. I can't imagine ever not using this software. Cons Because there are so many features, I think that it can sometimes be difficult to figure out exactly where and how to do the things you need to do. For example, it took me several minutes to figure out how to split out my PDF into separate files the first time I did it. That's probably more user error than anything, but it can be confusing. Review Source TD Tiffany D. Practice Manager Veterinary Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "We use it because we have to." October 16, 2025 3.0 We use it because its the highest security for the price and we needed unlimited use public webforms, but the second our management software matches this ability, we'll be cancelling adobe. Pros the level of security for the signatures collected and the ability to have a webform link for unlimited clients to access and sign at any time, all under a flat rate fee. Cons it's not been very easy to use for us or for clients. It feels very clunky and outdated. The customer service is awful. I've literally had one of their managers yell at me. When there was an issue with our account, they duplicated our account and charged for both for several months. When trying to address that and get a refund, their answer was to shut down the account that had ALL of our signed forms in it then refuse to refund anything more than giving the next 3 months at no charge AND we had to set up an entirely new account after being yelled at. Alternatives considered [Docusign](https://www.capterra.com/p/121506/Docusign/) Reason for choosing Adobe Acrobat flat rate, more affordable price for unlimited webform submissions. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Bookkeeper Financial Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Worth it and easy to use. " February 16, 2026 5.0 Overall, very positive. This is a program that gets daily use, by us and our clients when we need e-signatures or just more information from them. Pros Easy to use for our team, easy to use to convert files and create webforms for e-signing. It's part of our workflows and projects, and is is worth the cost. I have yet to need to contact customer support. Cons There is one setting I want to adjust that I can't find. It's doesn't effect anything but would be nice to help with the workflow. Review Source JM Jenifer M. Professional Development Coordinator E-Learning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Love Adobe Acrobat for professional development work" September 15, 2025 5.0 I enjoy it overall for work and makes working with pdf documents so much easier but make sure you look over all membership pricing and pick the cheapest one for your situation. Pros The edit function for the documents and the ability to compare documents. It is really easy to learn too if you are not familiar with it. Cons The reader is tricky; it is difficult to input and align the date to an already existing document. The individual pricing is expensive monthly but the organization membership with multiple accounts for the year is not bad. Review Source Hillel G. Director of Implementation Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A necessary PDF manager" August 25, 2025 3.0 Its an app thats necessary to use but its a pain to use sometimes as its intuitive and not intuitive at the same time. Pros Has all of the features needed for PDF management. Fairly easy to use and manage with minimal insight. Cons Pricing can be better especially for larger companies. Also the file to install is very large and tha app is very buggy. Alternatives considered [UPDF](https://www.capterra.com/p/255423/UPDF/) Reason for choosing Adobe Acrobat Software was better on adobe and updf was missing a few core features Review Source MW Marissa W. Senior Account Executive Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Adobe Acrobat for B2B Software Sales - Documents & Contracts" January 30, 2026 4.0 I started using Adobe Acrobat prior to any other document applications, but I do prefer the formality of it. Pros I've been using Adobe Acrobat over DocuSign for signatures on contracts and documents and have found it to be much easier to use. It is also necessary for document conversion - mainly word documents to PDFs and vice versa. Cons When editing PDFs for signature, it can sometimes be a little tricky to customize especially drop down menus and personalized data that are different than typical signer information. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Principal Staffing and Recruiting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "adobe experience " March 19, 2026 5.0 Pros its pretty user friendly and customer service is also very helpful. i have had issues before and they were very available! Cons that you have to restart your application to update it sometimes. when things have not been working perfectly i have noticed thats what you have to do.
